"He was numb except for dreading the loss of numbness. Walking with his head down, speaking to no one, he could hear his blood like a hollow drumming of wings. It seemed a very short distance to the outside. This was only a building; there were only fiver doors between Lecter and the outside. He had the absurd feeling Lecter had walked out with him. He stopped outside the entrance and looked around himassuring he was alone."
Graham is in such a paranoid state of fear because of his previous encounters with Lecter. I read this and I could feel it also. It's the creepiest thing when you think someone is watching and following your every move. And even though Lecter is locked up in the insane asylum, there is nothing trustworthy about him. He is extremely smart and could probably escape if he really put his mind too it. I chose a photo where a man is having many fingers pointed at it, it illustrates how Graham is caught up in the fact that Lecter is out to get him. He even says to Graham that the only reason he caught Lecter, is because they are alike. Creepy...
